Topic Dog Boards / Showing / Bathing at Windsor??
- By Dill [gb] Date 25.06.07 21:48 UTC
We're supposed to be showing at Windsor on Thursday :rolleyes:  I'm just wondering whether I should be taking a swimming cossie or snorkle and flippers?

Anyone know where I can get this info? 

How would I find out if the field is too waterlogged to use?  or are there alternative arrangements?

I have faith in that windsor is normally nice weather.  I'm just keeping fingers crossed....

However if you don't find the info on thursday night would it be possible to let us know?  My Dad's handling on the friday and we're showing on the saturday, want to know if it will be a nice day out o the friday or not!! :D

I've just spoken to a friend who has had a word with the Windsor Secretary and the word is that everythings OK :)  Hope this is true but I've got some snazzy wellies just in case :)

apparently leopard skin print are the 'in' thing in wellies this season ;)
or so they said for those fashionites heading for Glastonbury...

Leopard skin print are SO passe LOL  They need to keep up with me - I've got afghan-style wellies LOL  :D :D :D

Anyone know what the ground was like today? Forecast is wet for tomorrow :(
- By Boxacrazy [in] Date 28.06.07 18:51 UTC
Dunno - but it hasn't rained yet so far in Reading which isn't too far from Windsor...
But we are promised some heavy rain especially in rush hour...
We've only got the one judge for our breed so I'm expecting to get a bit wet..

Was at Windsor today and it didn't rain all day thankfully though was a bit cloudy and windy at times....  Only live a few miles away and as yet still no rain so fingers crossed for the rest of the show :D

Well if we get blazing sun Saturday and sunny but cool on Sunday it will be dried out for us and comfortable for Sunday.

Last year we fried.:eek:
- By Boxacrazy [in] Date 28.06.07 19:23 UTC
Yup certainly remember that :)
Bit too hot for the Boxers last year.
Not really complaining but would prefer not to have the wet stuff,
Cloudy suits just fine!!

Was at Windsor yesterday and the weather was almost perfect :)  just a little too cool at times even for me, but then it was so changeable I didn't wear my show jacket as it was too hot when the sun did appear :rolleyes: :)

Hope you all manage to enjoy dry weather on the day you're showing :)

Oh good, perhaps things are looking up - we are there Sunday of course.  Perhaps the weather is better than most parts of the country.  We certainly keep getting rain forcast but have only had a limited amount here in Brighton.

The rings were fine today, but the area between the benching tents and trade stands were muddy.  The worst area's were the entrances to the tents.  I would wear sensible footwear to at least get into the venue, especially if it rains overnight.
- By Boxacrazy [in] Date 29.06.07 21:17 UTC
We got caught in more than one shower.

I'd also suggest sensible footwear to walk into the venue.
As the member car park was a tad slippy trying to get accross to the entrance..
But then it had been raining quite hard in the early hours.
By the time I'd left 4.30pm that car park was drying out quite nicely :)
